Today we are going to do another interview but with a professional athlete.  Let me introduce you to Olympian Triathlete Stuart Hayes. I knew Stuart when I was working as gym instructor in the late nineties.

 Bullet Points of Key Topics:

Let start at the beginning.  How did you get into your sport?

Was sport a large of your education at school?

Did you start off doing one discipline then progress?

Had you always been a good runner?

What do you feel are the benefits for you?

I know Mental Health is a buzz word now.  Does running help and if so how?

As this is a podcast for those starting out in running what is your best advice?

intervals ?

tempo runs ?

long runs ?

Other exercises outside running ?

Do you have any heroes ?

People who inspired you?

Injuries?

What have been the frustrations of getting injured?

Are there any positives?

I remember you had a horrific accident with a deer in Bushy park.  (Don't have to talk about it if you don't want to).

Any tips to other runners going through the same issues?

What do you listen to when you train?

Do you like audio books?

Music or podcasts?

Anything else you would like to talk about?

 I understand you share another passion that I am really into.  I’m into card magic.  How did you get into Magic?

 

What are your socials and how can people reach you?

 Plus, we have a new feature on the podcast you can now send me a message.  Yep you heard it right- Brian's Run Pod has become interactive with the audience.
